Today is the 20th anniversary of Pokinatcha by MxPx. They have a little tribute up on their website for it.

One of the greatest enduring legacies from Pokinatcha is our beloved iconic Pokinatcha Punk logo. The Punk, designed by John Nissen has stood with us throughout all of the past 20 years, through various adaptations and reinterpretations. John designed all of the early Punk images — running, jumping, stomping, and skating. He was kind enough to come back and design this very special 20 Years of Pokinatcha logo just for the anniversary. Thank you John for 20 years of the Pokinatcha Punk!

Amber Pacific have posted on Facebook that they cannot(?) release "When I Found You" as a single but that it'll still be on the album. Hit the replies to hear the new song "Undone" featuring Mike Hererra.

At the request of Hopeless Records and All Time Low Management we are unable to release "When I Found You (feat. Alex Gaskarth)" as our single, but are happy to announce that they have granted us the right to keep the song on our new record The Turn...

MxPx's It Came From Bremerton was released on VHS in 2000, I remember purchasing it from a Sam Goodie or something like that. It's now been uploaded in full to YouTube, so check that out in the replies.

For those who don't know, AbsolutePunk.net initially started out as a Blink-182/MxPx fansite. So it's pretty cool that our latest AbsolutePunk.net Podcast episode features Jason chatting with Mike Herrera of MxPx. In this episode, Jason and Mike talk about the current status of the band, being in a band for some two decades, record label politics, real world politics, and Mike’s own podcast hour.

You can subscribe to this podcast in a variety of ways: via iTunes, your own RSS feed (instructions below), or streaming/downloading the mp3 in the replies. You can also find our previous episodes on iTunes and SoundCloud. As always, we hope you enjoy.

After being together for over a decade, MxPx's side project band, Arthur, have officially called it a day.

“Arthur was never a full time touring band, but we were a band none the less, which is why we're formally BREAKING UP,” said band frontman Arthur. “It just doesn’t make sense to keep doing nothing, so we’ve collectively decided to pursue separate creative endeavors.”
“We want to thank all of you that listened to our music and supported Arthur throughout the last decade,” said Arthur, Edmund, Alexander and Zane. “We created music for you, and the best part is that our music will never die!”

MxPx's 1994 debut album Pokinatcha is being pressed onto vinyl for the first time ever. Available for pre-order through Tooth and Nail Records for $19.99 and shipping mid December. Double LP set, pressed on marbled, light blue, and red.
